Pierce County Parks and Recreation will hold the 12th annual Hi-Tech Collision Classic Car and Truck Show at Sprinker Recreation Center on Saturday, Sept. 27. The free spectator event will be open from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., and more than 500 classic cars and trucks are anticipated to be on display.

“This year we’re excited to welcome back our title sponsor, Hi-Tech Collision,” said Becca Boyle, event coordinator at Sprinker Recreation Center. “We will also feature a Roaring 20’s theme and we’re inviting staff, spectators and participants to join in the festivities with their twenties-inspired attire! Lady Luck Steakhouse Saloon is ‘Puttin’ on the Ritz’ with their themed luncheon. It's sure to be a great afternoon in the park with family, friends and classic car enthusiasts. Everyone is invited so join us, rain or shine!"

Pierce County’s General Manager of Sprinker Recreation Center, Kyle Wintermute, will return to MC the show, which will also feature multiple car-related vendors, on-site pinstriping, the House of Doughnuts donut truck, more than $7,000 in prize giveaways, and much more.
